As expected, women’s issues have taken center stage at the Democratic National Convention .
Inside the center, speeches from Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY), former Democratic presidential nominee Hillary Clinton , and others directed their ire at former President Donald Trump and his contribution to state abortion bans. Outside, DNC-allied Planned Parenthood offered a two-day mobile “health” clinic.
The party that pushes abortions, vasectomies, and birth control wants women, and men, to be isolated without lifelong support and real responsibility. This choice of childlessness is not the same as infertility, which even Gwen Walz, wife of Gov. Tim Walz (D-MN), has described as a “desperation that can eat away at your soul.” (Or is she lying , too?) All the more desperation comes with the unrestricted freedom to make oneself infertile.
Democrats couple this idea of “reproductive freedom” with a limitless individualism. It promotes the obvious lie that women “can do anything” men can do, as though men and women have no difference, so they should not subject themselves to mere motherhood. This is a lonely life of constant climbing and discontent, and it is what the Democratic Party wants for the women it claims to support.
Clinton enveloped these talking points well. She returned to her old motto near the end of her DNC speech: “We have to fight for Kamala as she will fight for us. Because you know what? It still takes a village to raise a child, heal a country, and win a campaign.” In line with Harris, Clinton advocates pushing child-rearing duties further out of the home, with such policies as pumping money into child care, in the name of progress through the “glass ceiling” all women seem to share.
The idea that Clinton wants only the village and not the family has been tackled in years previous, most pointedly by former Sen. Rick Santorum in his book It Takes a Family . Today, there is added irony to the “village” proverb. It is plain to see that the long decline in birth rates might mean both fewer children and fewer children-friendly communities: In short, fewer villages. If encouraging their followers against fertility, or for very choice fertility, is what the Democrats aim to do, they will erase the village.

More important, they do not want women to be dependent on the village. The position that women can and should do anything advances a refusal of any traditional structure that might help them. Liberals decry a real-life framework for the village when it is offered, as with backlash against Sen. J.D. Vance’s (R-OH) articulation of the “grandmother hypothesis.”
If the Democratic Party has any say, it will sustain a lonely, childless existence for women.
